Driving Control Device Non-Transit Point Filtering
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In remote driving services, there is a risk that a vehicle may be stopped at an undesirable location by an occupant different from the requester, leading to potential unauthorized visits.
Innovation Solution
A driving control device that includes a general user terminal for inputting a destination, transit points, and non-transit points, an occupant operation information acquisition device for receiving stop instructions, and a control device that ensures the vehicle passes through or stops at locations based on registered non-transit points to prevent undesirable stops.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If the occupant can freely issue stop instructions, then the ease of operation is improved, but the reliability deteriorates due to potential unauthorized stops at undesirable locations
Solution Approach 1:
The requester pre-registers non-transit points (locations where the vehicle should not stop) and transit points (authorized stop locations) before the vehicle journey begins. This preliminary configuration establishes control rules that the control device enforces during operation, allowing the occupant to issue stop instructions only at authorized locations while preventing stops at non-transit points.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device acts as an intermediary between the occupant's stop instructions and the vehicle's actual stopping action. It receives stop location information from the occupant, checks whether the location is a registered non-transit point, and either permits or blocks the stop instruction accordingly. This intermediary function reconciles the occupant's operational freedom with the requester's location control requirements.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the vehicle stops at all locations requested by the occupant, then the adaptability is improved, but the loss of information increases regarding the requester's preferred routing preferences
Solution Approach 1:
The requester's routing preferences, specifically the non-transit points and transit points, are registered and stored in advance before the vehicle journey begins. This preliminary action preserves the requester's information about desired and undesired locations, which the control device then uses to filter and manage stop instructions during the journey.
Solution Approach 2:
The control device provides feedback to both the occupant and the requester regarding stop location decisions. When the occupant issues a stop instruction at a non-transit point, the control device notifies the requester, who can then determine whether to override the restriction. This feedback mechanism maintains the requester's preferences while allowing for necessary adaptations.

AI summary
A driving control device includes a general user terminal that receives a request for a driving service for moving a vehicle to a destination by receiving, as inputs, a destination, a transit point, and a non-transit point at which the vehicle is not to be stopped, an occupant of the vehicle operation information acquisition device that receives an instruction from an occupant indicating a location where the vehicle is to be stopped, and a control device that, if the location input at the occupant operation information acquisition device of the vehicle running under the driving service corresponds to the non-transit point, causes the vehicle to pass without stopping at the location, and stops the vehicle at the location if the location does not correspond to the non-transit point.
